With a single paragraph, American Major General James Harbord managed to capture at once the geopolitical uncertainty, lawlessness, and simmering ethnic hatreds of the Caucasus in 1919.
"In the region once policed by Russia, the relaxation from its iron hand has been great and life and property are unsafe in many regions," Harbord wrote. "Our mission was fired upon by Kurds in Russian Armenia and several motor cars struck by bullets, and over half the party were kept prisoner one night by Moslems who claimed to have been driven from their villages by Armenians."
The passage is from Harbord's Report Of The American Mission To Armenia, compiled after he led a fact-finding mission to a briefly independent Armenia following the collapse of both the Ottoman and Russian empires and before the country was captured by the Bolsheviks."
Major General James Harbord (center) poses with Armenian bishops in Echmiadzin in September 1919.
"America, then under the presidency of Woodrow Wilson, sent Harbord to lead a 50-man team to Turkey and Armenia to "investigate and report on the political, military, geographic, administrative, economic, and such other considerations involved in possible American interests and responsibilities in the region."
Harbord's mission departed Istanbul in September 1919 then traveled by train and car through today's Turkey, Syria, Armenia, and finally Georgia."
"Accompanying Harbord's report, which sought to conclude whether an American mandate over the region was feasible, several dozen images made by a military photographer called Sergeant Barnes provide a rare glimpse into Armenia and Georgia's "First Republics."
The photos are now held in the U.S. National Archives."
"A Russian-built church seen by the expedition in "Sarikamish, Armenia," which today is a Turkish town. The church later had its spires removed and now serves as a mosque."
"Armenia in 1919 was a country ringed with conflict. In the west, ethnic Armenians had been largely wiped out through what one observer described as a nationwide Ottoman effort at "annihilating the Armenian race in the Turkish Empire."
"In the north, Armenia fought with Georgia over disputed territory, and in the east, Armenian forces waged brutal battles over land with Azerbaijani forces and theOttoman "Army of Islam."
"Despite reeling from the Ottoman-era massacres, Armenia had captured large swathes of territory in eastern Anatolia in May 1919, just months before Harbord's mission arrived in the territory."
"As well as the physical dangers he experienced during the trip, Harbord described the visible traces left of the massacres widely referred to as the Armenian genocide.
"Mutilation, violation, torture, and death have left their haunting memories in a hundred beautiful Armenian valleys, and the traveler in that region is seldom free from the evidence of this most colossal crime of all the ages," he wrote."
"Armenia," Harbord noted as an introduction to the country for his Washington audience, "was evangelized by Apostles fresh from the memory of our Lord, as early as 33 A.D., and as a nation adopted Christianity and founded a National Church in 301 A.D."

"In May 1920, U.S. President Wilson asked for authority to establish a mandate for Armenia, but the Senate rejected his request by a vote of 52 to 23.
Soon afterward, Armenia was invaded by both Turkey and the Bolsheviks. In 1922 the country was folded into the Soviet Union as a part of the Transcaucasian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic, along with Georgia and Azerbaijan."
"The Zangezur corridor[a] (Armenian: Զանգեզուրի միջանցք, romanized: Zangezuri mijantsk; Azerbaijani: Zəngəzur dəhlizi) is a concept for a transport corridor linking Azerbaijan with its exclave the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, via Armenia's Syunik Province."
"...it would, in a broad sense, be the geopolitical corridor that would connect Turkey to the rest of the Turkic world, thereby "uniting it".
"Azerbaijan has initiated construction projects on its territory presenting them as part of the implementation of a so-called "Zangezur corridor" and threatened that should Armenia not want it, Azerbaijan "will decide it by force".
(All of this I already knew, but it wasnt called the Zangezur corridor in the press coverage or overwhelming majority anyway, and its not an accident that the source calling it the renamed Zangezur Corridor was from outside the US, The Financial Times, UK. Like I said, if I had known that when writing the original piece? I would have been all over it.)
"Various international observers have characterized the "Zangezur corridor" as an pan-Turkic expansionist ambition..."
(It's not ambition anymore
Now it's happening.)
"In February 2021, a dispute arose around a clause in the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh ceasefire agreement ...Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev declared that the ceasefire agreement contained a special provision on the establishment of a so-called "Nakhichevan corridor". The Armenian government and Armenian opposition parties rejected this claim emphasizing that the ceasefire agreement did not contain any provisions for establishing such "corridor".
"In April 2021, Aliyev announced that Azerbaijani people would return to what he described as "West Zangazur" and Azerbaijan's "historic lands" within the borders of Armenia..."
(Ethnic Cleansing anybody?)
"However, a week later, he warned that Azerbaijan would establish the "Zangezur corridor" by force if Armenia would not accede to the creation of the corridor."
"When hosting Erdogan in Zangelan in 2021, Aliyev said that "the corridor that is going to pass through here is going to unite the whole Turkic world". He repeated this during the meeting of the representatives of Organization of Turkic States on 12 November 2021, adding that the corridor will become for Turkic states a link with Europe."
"Turkey has long sought to establish a direct land corridor to Azerbaijan, with numerous sources stating that this ambition was a driving factor behind the Armenian Genocide, as the Armenian population stood geographically in the way. Genocide Watch characterizes the corridor as a pan-Turkic project which "will cost thousands of Armenian lives."
(And the US regime
is instrumental
in it's being created.
It's not a framework for peace
when somebody is
standing on your neck
making you sign papers
giving them
what they have openly said
they will take by force if you don't.)
"Ahmad Kazemi, the author of the book Security in South Caucasus, told Iran's Strategic Council on Foreign Relations that "Azerbaijan is seeking to establish the so-called pan-Turkist illusionary Zangezur corridor in south of Armenia under the pretext of creating connectivity in the region," arguing that "this corridor is not compatible with any of the present geopolitical and historical realities of the region."
"Since the end of the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War, Azerbaijan has increasingly promoted expansionist claims to Armenian territory which it describes as "Western Azerbaijan."
"Turkey — The Shusha Declaration signed by presidents of Azerbaijan and Turkey on 15 June 2021 included a passage on the "Zangezur corridor", and both Aliyev and Erdogan stressed the importance of its implementation in the following joint press conference.The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia condemned their joint visit to Shusha, calling it a provocation."
"A U.S. official told Axios that the main goal of the United States in this development project is to reduce the influence of Iran, Russia, and China in the South Caucasus region. The corridor would allow people and goods to travel between Turkey and Azerbaijan and beyond to Central Asia without passing through Iran or Russia."
(Notice they didn't tell you it mostly benefits Turkey
realize a long sought after Pan-Turkic vision?)
"Negative Reaction
Iran: Ali Akbar Velayati, a top adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader, criticized the project, claiming that its intent is to "sever Iran’s link with the Caucasus and impose a land blockade on Iran and Russia". He added: This corridor will not become a passage owned by Trump, but rather a graveyard for Trump's mercenaries."
And now you know why:
"It's way worse than we ever thought (Armenia /Azerbaijan "Peace" Initiative, Pan-Turkish agenda, False prophet, Turkey, Beast from the Abyss, etc...)
"Some Armenian-American leaders in Massachusetts worry the peace deal puts at risk the very history and culture they've been working decades to preserve."
"It is very important to have peace with your neighbors, however, Armenia is surrounded on both sides by neighbors who have participated in ethnic cleansing," said Dr. Ara Nazarian, of the Armenian National Committee of Eastern Massachusetts. "The fundamental worry is that you cannot have peace between two parties when one has their foot on your neck."
"Folks should know that this is not right,"said Nazarian. "This is not the kind of peace that is going to support Armenians' future growth, democracy and independence."
"ANKARA, Aug 9 (Reuters) - Muslim nations must act in unison and rally international opposition against Israel's plan to take control of Gaza City, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said on Saturday after talks in Egypt."
"Regional powers Egypt and Turkey both condemned the plan on Friday. Ankara has said it marked a new phase in what it called Israel's genocidal and expansionist policies, while calling for global measures to stop the plan's implementation."
"Speaking at a joint press conference in El Alamein with his Egyptian counterpart Badr Abdelatty, after also meeting Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, Fidan said the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation had been called to an emergency meeting."
"Fidan said Israel's policy aimed to force Palestinians out of their lands through hunger and that it aimed to permanently invade Gaza, adding there was no justifiable excuse for nations to continue supporting Israel."
(Luke 21:20-28
And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies,
then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.)
"Israel denies having a policy of starvation in Gaza, and says Palestinian militant group Hamas, which killed 1,200 people in its October 2023 attack, could end the war by surrendering."
"What is happening today is a very dangerous development... not only for the Palestinian people or neighbouring countries," Abdelatty said, adding that Israel's plans were "inadmissible".
"Abdelatty said there was full coordination with Turkey on Gaza, and referred to a statement issued on Saturday by the OIC Ministerial Committee condemning Israel's plan."
"The OIC committee said Israel's plan marked "a dangerous and unacceptable escalation, a flagrant violation of international law, and an attempt to entrench the illegal occupation", warning that it would "obliterate any opportunity for peace".
"Iran opposes the creation of a corridor near the Iranian border linking Azerbaijan to its Naxcivan exclave, proposed as part of a US-brokered Azerbaijan-Armenia peace deal,
(More like a "do as we say" deal.)
"an aide to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Saturday."
"Ali Akbar Velayati said the South Caucasus region wasn’t “some no-man’s land” that US President Donald Trump can lease, the Tasnim news agency reported. “Trump seems to think he’s a real estate broker and wants to lease a land or region.”
"Calling the Caucasus region
“one of the most sensitive
geographic points in the world,”
(Understand why we are getting involved now?)
"Velayati, who advises Khamanei on foreign policy matters, said the passageway would become
“a graveyard for Trump’s mercenaries.”
"The planned route, known as the Zangezur Corridor
(This piece was done on Saturday, 8/9
not on Friday 8/8 when the deal was signed.
I wrote what I did on Saturday
based on what I had read on Friday .)
"but dubbed on Friday as the “Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity,” is an element of a peace deal signed at the White House on Friday between Azerbaijan and Armenia."
(It's a TRIPP alright,
as in a fall.)
"Under the agreement, the US would get exclusive development rights for up to 99 years to the transit route across southern Armenia"
(How much are we paying them
for that access through their country agian?)
"linking the bulk of Azerbaijan’s territory to the Naxcivan exclave, which borders Turkey."
(Promoting a Pan-Turkish agenda
there much Donald?
Why would that be I wonder?
Why wouldn't the False Prophet
Help the Beast from the Abyss?
Here all day.
Come splain it to me.)
"US officials portrayed the agreements as a win for Washington and a setback for Russia, Iran and China. While the peace declaration doesn’t carry the legal force of a treaty, the leaders on hand at the signing ceremony expressed confidence its terms would hold."
"If implemented, the proposed corridor would change the region’s geopolitical position and shift borders, and
“is designed for the partition of Armenia,”
Velayati said.
(And he is 100% right.)
“The idea of leasing a corridor to another country is naive, and Trump is playing dumb.Such a claim, that Trump could lease a corridor on this side of the world, is like someone from here going to lease the Panama Canal for themselves,” he said. “It’s impossible, and won’t happen.”
"Iran believes Russia is also strategically opposed to the corridor, Velayati said."
"Later on Saturday, Turkey's presidency said President Tayyip Erdogan had discussed the peace agreement with Ilham Aliyev, his counterpart from Azerbaijan. Erdogan welcomed the agreement and offered Ankara's support in achieving lasting peace in the region, it said.
"The agreement could transform the South Caucasus, an energy-producing region neighbouring Russia, Europe, Turkey and Iran that is criss-crossed by oil and gas pipelines but riven by closed borders - including between Turkey and Armenia - and longstanding ethnic conflicts."
(Its "Unimaginable alright, cause its got about as much chance for success as Trump Steaks, or Trump Airlines, or Trump university.)
"After almost four decades of a bloody conflict that until recently had no end in sight, Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a peace agreement in the presence of the US President Donald Trump."
(That is just not the proper context at all
Its been going on a lot loner than that.
Here is a map or Armenia in 1918.
(and actually goes back well before this.
File that away in your head,
we will come back to it.)
"Leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan Nikol Pashinyan (On the right)
and Ilham Aliyev (On the left) signed a peace agreement
(Initiative, its just a framework)
on Friday in the presence of US President Donald Trump in Washington,
after almost four decades of a bloody Karabakh conflict."
“We are today establishing peace in the South Caucasus,” Azerbaijan's President Aliyev said. "Today we writing a great new history."
(The lesson of Nazi Germany in 1933 isn't just that when you see facsism rising you get out while you can, it os also that appeasement never ever works. The aggressor being given more of what he wants will just take more, we have seen this just over and over and over throughout history. Same here with Azerbaijan, will be with Putin and Russia in Eastern Ukraine etc, its just how it works.

"In September 2023, Azerbaijan reclaimed full control of the Karabakh region after a lightning military campaign..."
(Warning:
Long detour
The day,
the very day that happened in September of 23
I did a presentation in the Noah to New Earth series
where I covered the prophecy
of Revelation 17:8-11
Revelation 17:8-11
The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because it once was, now is not, and yet will come.
9 “This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. 10 They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for only a little while. 11 The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction.
"Sharing a language, though with different dialects, the two countries had a record of military cooperation going back to the 1917 Russian Revolution. In 1918, the Ottoman military assisted Azerbaijan’s independence efforts. After the collapse of the Soviet Union and Azerbaijan’s independence,
“two states, one nation”
became a motto for a close relationship between the two countries."
I said the day I did the presentation:
"They are going to wipe them off the map.
They are going to finish the job they started
during WW1."
(Last night when sitting on the porch and thinking that same exact thought? I saw a shooting star, just as bright as could be and lasting several seconds. Honey was inside, when she came back out and I told her about it? She said, "It's nice to get confirmation isn't it?" I said yes, yes it is.)
I did not see the news of "Azerbaijan reclaimed full control of the Karabakh region" till the next morning (I was busy doing the presentation) when it was the first story in my news feed, for obvious reasons, and I got that queasy feeling in my stomach knowing that what was said about that prophecy happened on the very day that region fell. I said to myself:
"It's here."
(The beast from the Abyss)
And it about made me feel sick.
Revelation 10:9
And I went to the angel and said, “Give me the small scroll.” “Take it and eat it,” he said. “ It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”
"and over the past year, Baku and Yerevan have been making progress in normalising their relations."
(Armenia just has no choice, if they dont just give the Azerbaijanis what they want?
They will just take it anyway and the Armenians know it, and they really dont have the means by which to defend themselves.
The reason Azerbaijan had a "lightning military campaign" of the Karabakh region, was in large part due to the Turkish drones, just hammering Armenian positions artillery, tanks, etc they are just simply outmatched and know it. So what is their choice here?)
"Trump route' in South Caucasus
Armenia and Azerbaijan agreed to create a major transit corridor that will be named the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity.
It will connect mainland Azerbaijan and its Nakhchivan region, which borders Baku's ally Turkey via Armenian territory."
(Nothing I have read says where it will be located
but one can imagine it will look something like:
So since 2023,
we have seen this:
Turn into this:
And now will be something
along the lines of
this:
Its just not all that hard to imagine
this being next
I said the day I did the presentation:
"They are going to wipe them off the map.
They are going to finish the job they started
during WW1."
And now we are seeing it come to fruition.
Under the guise of:
"Peace and Prosperity"
Declared on 8/8.

Nothing is an accident with God.
Nothing.
Everything serves his purpose.

"For Baku, the corridor offers a direct land connection to Nakhchivan, strengthens ties with Turkey..."

"And the beast was taken,
and with him the false prophet
that wrought miracles before him,
with which he deceived them
that had received the mark of the beast,
and them that worshipped his image.
These both were cast alive

Ive said it plenty of times before:
The False prophet sets it up with the billions received from the Saudia Arabia Investment Forum and the ten kings without a kingdom (Our Tech Bro Overlords Revelation 17:12) and he markets it, then The Antichrist will take it over when the time comes.

12 And he exerciseth all the power

BEFORE HIM...
Back to the article:)
"For Baku, the corridor offers a direct land connection to Nakhchivan, strengthens ties with Turkey and consolidates post-war gains through infrastructure diplomacy."
(We are rewarding the aggressor
which means he will just want more:
Proverbs 27:20
20 Hell and destruction are never full;
so the eyes of man are never satisfied.
"Don't forget your history
Know your destiny
In the abundance of water
The fool is thirsty")
"It also strengthens Azerbaijan’s position as a crucial transport and logistics hub on a global scale. Initially, Azerbaijan did not want to have any third party involved and preferred to have it under Baku’s control, without the US, Europe or Russia's involvement.
(Exactly what the Beast from the Abyss would want.)
"For Yerevan the transport route provides an opportunityto further integrate into wider trade networks, diversify its battered economy and attract foreign investment. Geopolitically, it would also help Armenia normalise relations with its neighbours."
"Yerevan was concerned it could threaten Armenian sovereignty and wanted it to remain under Armenian control."
"The new Trump route will be operated according to Armenian law, and
the US will sublease the land
to a consortium
for infrastructure and management,
the officials said."
(Translation:
"Were going to make $
off of watching you be
exterminated."
Nice...)
“Many leaders have tried to end the war, with no success, until now, thanks to Trump,” the US president said on his Truth Social site."
(1 Thessalonians 5:3
For when they shall say,
Peace and safety;
then sudden destruction
cometh upon them,
as travail upon a woman with child;
and they shall not escape.)
"In recent days, Russia-state-controlled media have issued massive criticism and numerous attacks on Pashinyan, accusing him of “trading” Armenian sovereignty for personal financial gains and even calling him a “puppet”."
(This wasnt ever a very popular option, the "transit corridor" thrpough Armenia, thats for sure. Like I asked, what is their other option here when "Give it to us or we will just take it." is all there is?)
"Without holding Azerbaijan’s aggressive behavior to account, the imminent Caucasus peace deal won’t bring stability to the region."
"Last October, during the heat of the US presidential campaign, President Donald Trump turned to Truth Social to admonish the Biden administration’s failure to stop the persecution of Armenians by Azerbaijan:
"Kamala Harris did NOTHING as 120,000 Armenian Christians were horrifically persecuted and forcibly displaced in Artsakh.
(Thats the Karabakh region
that fell in September of 23,
seen here in light blue:
)
"Christians around the world will not be safe if Kamala Harris is President of the United States. When I am President, I will protect persecuted Christians, I will work to stop the violence and ethnic cleansing, and we will restore PEACE between Armenia and Azerbaijan."
(In reality?
The false prophet
is only encouraging more of
"persecuted Christians...
violence and ethnic cleansing")
"With Armenia and Azerbaijan poised to ink a peace deal at the White House this Friday, President Trump seems to be following through on that statement. Still, upon closer examination, this agreement proves to be toothless and a feeble attempt to portray Azerbaijan as a trusted partner. Put simply, it is rich in symbolism and lacking in substance."
(AMEN!)
"That is why the United States and Europe failed to prevent Azerbaijan from starving Armenians living in their ancestral homeland of Artsakh, also known as Nagorno-Karabakh, during a 10-month road blockade which culminated in the ethnic cleansing of more than 120,000 Armenians from the region in September 2023, making it the largest displacement of Armenians since the Armenian Genocide of 1915."
"Since taking over the enclave, Azerbaijan has demonstrated a behavior that contrasts sharply with the desire for peace, indicating a preference for confrontation and even violence."
"They continue to hold Armenian political prisoners and prisoners of war in jail without due process. These sham trials and proceedings have been criticized by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. When pressured by external voices, Aliyev ordered the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to leave Azerbaijan, which was a direct attempt to limit the only access these Armenian political prisoners had to the outside world and report on their condition."
"While pursuing peace, Azerbaijan has also embarked on a campaign of cultural erasure of Armenian churches, monasteries, khachkars (cross-stone monuments), and other religious and historical sites in Artsakh that have stood in the region for thousands of years. Under the pretext of “restoring” Armenian churches and religious sites to their “original” form, Aliyev is trying to wipe out the existence of Armenian culture and identity in the region. Already, Azerbaijani forces have defaced or destroyed an estimated 400 Armenian churches and other religious sites since 2020."
"Armenian culture have been closely defined by its Christian faith since it’s introduction in 301 AD, making Armenia the oldest Christian nation. By dishonoring and destroying that history, Azerbaijan is not signaling that it wants a genuine peace with Armenia."
"Evan after absorbing Artsakh, Aliyev now claims large parts of Armenia’s territory as Azerbaijan’s “historical lands,” while calling Armenia “Western Azerbaijan.” This follows a troubling pattern of other speeches expressing similar arguments. Aliyev has even stated that Armenia’s capital, Yerevan, belongs to Azerbaijan. While this kind of rhetoric might be dismissed as just bombastic words, words matter and have consequences."
"Despite this overwhelming evidence of Azerbaijan’s true intentions, President Trump continues to ignore the realities on the ground.
(Its how the False prophet operates.
He isnt ignoring the realities on the ground.
He just doesnt care about them.)
"In many ways, Trump is reneging on his campaign promise to protect Christian Armenians from further persecution and hold Azerbaijan responsible for its actions. He seems more interested in Azerbaijan’s natural resources than he is in the lives of Armenians or regional stability."
($ over lives is amoral.)
"Therefore, any meaningful peace deal between Armenia and Azerbaijan must include the immediate release of all Armenian political prisoners and the unconditional release of all Armenian POWs."
"It must also include the end of Azerbaijan’s religious and cultural mistreatment of Armenian antiquities and holy sites and rebuke all forms of historical revisionism that can be used as a pretext for future attacks on Armenian sovereignty."
"And it needs to enforce the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling that ordered Azerbaijan to allow the return of Armenians to Artsakh in a “safe, unimpeded, and expeditious manner.”
"Peace should always be the end goal, but there can be no coexistence and tolerance in the region without accountability.
